Current revision

Used in evaluating prognosis of toxic epidermal necrolysis[1].

One point for[2]:

  1. Age > 40 years
  2. Malignancy
  3. Tachycardia > 120/min
  4. Initial epidermal detachment > 10%
  5. Urea > 10 mmol/l
  6. Glucose > 14 mmol/l
  7. Bicarbonate < 20 mmol/l

Probability of death = e(-4.448 + 1.237*SCORTEN)/(1 + e(-4.448 + 1.237*SCORTEN))
